Thank you for your kind words and the upcoming payment.
Yes we do understand it is difficult for a french guy to prepare a minitransat, and consequently we know that it is way more difficult for a foreigner to prepare. We’ve been vey impressed so far by your commitment and dedication to learning mini sailing.
We also do understand that family is part of the deal. i will relentlessly tell you to bring them here ! it is the best way to involve them.
The race in Med (in Balearic island) stats on November 9, not december. So far it is sold out : they have 50 boats, plus 20 on the waiting list . I will call them tomorrow to understand what they plan to do : stick to 50 max participants, or to allow for 20 more boats. I’ll let you know as soon as I have an answer.
One of Justin’s best friend, sailing the P3 1065, won a race in the calvados cup. he told us last week that he will prepare for the minitransat 27 instead of the minitransat 25 because he can not cope with all he has to do (he is a student). SO this is a quiet frequent and normal decision. A 4 years preparation instead of 2 also gives more chances of success. So do not be afraid of taking more time to prepare.
Finally, I’m sure that we could set up a mini training center in China one day ! So we should keep a long term view for all of this !
I have thus few questions and information for you.
1) Option one is to race in november in Med. We should have this answer next week latest.
2) If not possible, we should organise your planning accordingly. There is a new center opening in Brest this year. Do you want us to investigate this option ? We also need to prepare a planning for your training and races of next year. do you already have an idea ? Should we organise a call (skype or phone ?) to discuss this ?
3) where is you car, and who is taking care of it ? did you leave it at the airport ? (if yes, for such a long period maybe the car is stolen, or at the police station ?
We miss you a lot and look forward to seeing you soon. give me a time slot for a call.
